#NBCNews #HunterBiden #Whistleblower
Hunter stay messing with the blow and hookers. Remember when he told that lady he smoked more parmesan cheese than anyone 🤣 Don’t ya just love the nice wholesome biden family
This just shows how corrupt the DOJ and FBI are. White privilege
Is the media finally doing their job?
Only when they can’t lie, deny or spin the facts.
@ClassicFIHD FoxNewsJive…haha.
They got sued for lying too!
the big guy wants his 10%
And he got it, to the tune of 8 million.
Trump wants his $2 million a pardon
He’s sitting right next to Hunty waiting for his cut. The only thing that should be cut is Joeys term as the installed president.
@Chris Jenkins lol. You guys are the most gullible fools on the planet
This is so much bigger than we all know… probably the biggest corruption cover up in history..
Brasil
Well anyone with a brain kmows daddy bailed him out again. If a normal person would have pulled this crap they would have been in prison before now for a long time.
If his daddy really wanted to bail him out he could have issued a pardon. But I guess that’s too simple for people like you to think through
@Francis Hurley What kind of message would that give to the nation?
@TOP CHILLS what message? Does it matter? MAGA is already accusing Biden of interfering in the investigation. I’m just pointing put that if he really wanted to, he had options. Trump issued pardons to some of his cabinet members and didn’t care what America thought
Sadly, there is a 2-tiered justice system.
@XaphillyatedXstill simping for the corrupt regime, eh ?
Really are any of us shocked?!
” God Save The Queen! “
God save us from Donald Trump.
@TruthForJustice are you a troll?
@YesItsReallyKeith tell that to Biden
@TruthMatters can you say yesterday ?
@TruthForJustice Trump is not going to Hades. So have no fear of meeting him there.
Duh.
Are these the same whistleblowers with no evidence and who took money from Trumpland to testify after being fired for refusing to follow a directive?
Had enough?
If this message is legitimate, it should be followed up on.
Family members of prominent politicians have always gotten favorable treatment from law enforcement.
It also has been common for politicians to leverage their power/notoriety for their benefit and their family’s benefit.
This type of corruption is extremely common, across the political spectrum.
@Francis Hurley 2 Whistleblowers
@Nancy King yeah, and? What happened to all the other “whistle blowers” that Comer and Jordan had? They all either disappeared or they’re in jail and can’t be contacted. Just because someone makes a claim, it doesn’t mean it’s true
There’s a 2-tiered justice system, one for the rich and well connected, who get invited to a subpoena and arraignment for criminal charges, without bond; and one for the average Joe, where you get charged and incarcerated until your trial. Or their assets and bank accounts are frozen until they pay the tax bill.. It’s not about justice, it’s about how much justice you can afford!
@SpeakerofTruth Actually, I would say there is a 3-tiered justice system. I agree with your first 2. But the poor are treated especially badly.
@MNGuardianFanWhat they didn’t mention is that the Bidens received 5 million dollars from these people Biden wrote to, within days of sending this message.
FAKE NEWS
You can’t believe anything the gop is saying and the whistle blowers are all maga terrorist supporters.
NBC actually reporting news!!! Some truth about Biden crime family.😮
Id bet Wesley Snipes believes it too. He didnt forget
White privilege. He lied on a federal form. A fenoly. Let all the black men in prison charged with a fenoly out.
Why is everybody shocked that politicians, and even kids of presidents, in general, get special treatment, look at Donald J Trump, he stalled, and documents, top-secret, and this man gets treated with kid gloves, and it seems like all politicians get special treatment, but the normal red blooded, American, gets thrown down into a shaft, put in the pokey,/jail, and in a heartbeat if we did any of these things. This is the injustice that happens to normal citizens.
The whole country knows this crackhead is getting special treatment
Special treatment would have been if Biden pardoned him. He could have and did not. Now let’s look at Donnie Jr.’s laptop. Talk about witch hunts. Evidence says a lot.
#Flashpoint IRS persons that 🆔 as trans
(Hopkins home location infested by 🦂 activity in Austin Texas)
which is the single individual used, coupled with my info contact on cellular
(thru Intellectual Property theft routes)
to Federal Reserve Employee A. Marshal formerly with the Dallas Texas Federal Reserve!
Plus Ebt/debit nation corporate system manipulation just like Taarif big lie invert in other DDos Algorithm impacted infrastructure while tampering via the police helping domestic Prolife terror groups!
from Plano on the phone I did a $25 donation ( that hit my account as an almost $500 donation to supply chain disrupt donational activity against Iranian Russian policy influencers. then was assaulted the veritas group like I’m a planned parenthood screwing the nation with their Brietbart leak and groupings reported to Houston FBI as mom dad bring organizers!
Lock them up🙏🏾
Sensible citizens need to unite and get jobs or volunteer in the city councils, zoning and school boards, precinct committeemen, election polls, legislators and Gov’t agencies. The positions pay well and can help make changes to laws and resolutions.
Special Treatment Of Hunter Biden: FIFY
Thank you, NBC NEWS, for covering this! One of the main stream media sources that is legit.
😂😂😂
Legit?
@TOP CHILLS
Legit.
This comment must be satire
BS. The Trump-appointed US Attorney could/should gave resigned in protest. There is no *there* their.
Joe lied when he said he knew nothing about his son’s Chinese business dealings. What ELSE has he lied about? Once a liar, always a liar. I’m still not watching NBC News…I just happened to stumble upon it. 99 likes…lol
It’s evident that he got special treatment. Crime pays if your a Biden, just ask Joe
The President’s Son Doesn’t Thinks he shouldn’t have to Pay Taxes or Child Support
@Francis Hurley Hunter went to court to LOWER the Child Support Payments. His Payments were SLASHED from $20,000 to $5, 000 a month. This can easily be Googled. All that Free Bribery $$$ and the Dude gets his Child Support slashed, the only reason he paid his taxes late, he got tipped off IRS were on him. Hunter is on the phone trying to strong arm&shake down Corrupt Governments for Money. He’s like a Mafia Mob Boss
@Francis Hurley It’s not about child support. The lady new that Hunter was a crook with his dad in Quid Pro Quo (look at Hunter’s latest text exposed last night). So she new it was easy to get more money or he would be exposed by this child support trial, all the cash he was making illegal and not reporting to IRS. If the judge forfeits the plea deal it will open it all up, if DOJ does its job(not likely Joe owns DOJ/FBI). Of course if he ends up in prison for bribing, treason etc she may not get anything???
@Robert J the OP wote that Hunter doesn’t think he should pay child support. Yet he obviously IS paying child support
@Francis Hurley its not about child support anymore its about extortion of foreign powers
@Francis Hurley
strange that he’s paying.. considering he and his family won’t even acknowledge the child is a Biden. Poor kid
Imagine being Joe Biden.
Your son makes millions of dollars from foreign entities but does not pay taxes because that would mean disclosing that he is engaged in foreign lobbying. With the millions of dollars and no serious job, he becomes a drug addict and illegally obtains a gun. All he tells them is that he is the son of the US Vice President, and he claims that part of the money will go to the “Big Guy.” He promises them access to his dad and top US officials. They hire him without any qualifications and pay him millions of dollars.
Eventually, the information comes out, and the Justice Department has to investigate. The investigation drags on for five years, and eventually, they strike a deal with him to plead guilty to two misdemeanors of tax evasion so that the government would not prosecute him for illegally possessing a gun as a drug addict, a serious crime that has sent tens of thousands of Americans to prison for years. Imagine being the same father who, as a senator, drafted a draconian anti-drug law that sent tens of thousands of black people and others to prison, confiscated all their belongings, and gave a big speech boasting that the drug addicts should all be taken off the streets. Now that your son is one of them, when you’re asked about his case, you say you’re proud of him and he has done nothing wrong.
Imagine journalists and commentators like Joe Scarborough justifying it on television, singing your praises when their own child would have been in prison long ago for the same crimes. Imagine the people who believed in the rule of law watching the two-tiered justice system so brazenly displayed.
America is in crisis.
May God help us all!
with these obvious facts the supporters of this Biden crime family will have to come to the realization that they were wrong so wrong . This corruption could lead to the end of the world if he will do anything to cover it up, and I think he will if we go by the history of what he has done so far. He will be seating nice and comfortable in his bunker while we get overdone on the surface.
Stories that are lies I think the press before they air news should FACT CHECK the news they air if it was someone else would it be told I don’t believe what is being told her
Biden Trump Obama Bush Clinton all corrupt entitled POS our nation needs to move past this BY PROSECUTING ALLLL THE CORRUPTION
Joe Biden is a criminal and should be impeached.
There aré More Bombs being dropped in America than Russia and Ukraine combined,also América is running out of whistles. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Special treatment like Ivanka getting dozens of chinese trade marks, $640 million for providing access to trump and $2 billion from the funders of 9/11?
Looks like your Dictator Joe Briben has been caught red handed Quid Pro Quo, how about that . The evidence is so thick that only a brain dead person wouldn’t realize it. Check the latest text from his bagman Hunter. They shook down every country that was our known enemies for treason to our country.
All these people new this was happening the whole time they were impeaching Trump.
Which one affects our national security the most?
Rapper lil Wayne and Kodak black were sentenced to serve time in prison for the same crimes as hunter Biden. Donald Trump pardoned both rappers. Wesley snipes served a total of 6yrs for not paying taxes either. This doesn’t look good. It’s definitely a two tier justice system
Lock him up!
Donald?
Trump is next
Not just whistleblowers NBC. The whole country knows this. Stop playing dumb reporters already. This act is old.
When your Daddy is President of the United States 🇺🇲 – come on dude!
As an outsider I would disagree on so many things in the US but never have I ever doubted there justice system but if hunter Biden does follow procedure then ohhhhhhh it will be official the cracks will just continue showing🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I lived trough Watergate and this scandal is bigger than Watergate! Watergate was just a coverup of a 2-bit break-in. This is the vice-president of the United States taking bribes and lying! If true, Joe Biden will have to resign! *IF THE DEMOCRATS TRY TO DEFEND BIDEN, THEY WILL GO DOWN AT THE POLLS BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE FED UP WITH CORRUPTION IN WASHINGTON!*
like father like son
Even the Democrat loyalists in the media want Biden replaced.
Watching these mainstream media outlets refuse to cover his actions is why the public has zero trust in them
Wow, a left wing media channel actually reported truth.
It’s a slooooow train coming ! The bidens are criminals !
The Corruption of the Biden Crime Family is mind-boggling, to say nothing of disgusting.
There are people in jail been there for many years that did the same thing.
I thought NBC was a finacial supporter for Joe Biden, now talking about biden corruption wow what happened.
That last fall. Biden is done, Newsom will be the candidate. Hunter will be sacrificed and Joe will step down to “be with family at this troubled time”
This is criminal what has happened. People that have these kinds of charges are in prison. This is wrong so wrong. So will all with charges like this in prison get released.??????
NBC covering this? I’m shocked.
They are easing into his removal. Newsom is gonna be the candidate.
The MSMs decided it’s time for Cackling Hyena.
Not me….they’re a helluva lot better than that BS Fox jive network.
@TruthForJustice They are all owned by Black Rock. Stop pretending MSM hasn’t been a giant con on the people.
Whistleblowers? Jimmy Jordan and company are Trump’s helper monkeys…nothing else.
The son of a powerful white man getting special treatment?
That’s conspiracy talk….
Allen Dershewitz a Trump attorney, said the plea deal with Hunter Biden was appropriate!
Dah !
Open wide!
🕉☮💛
Jared 2Billion DollarMan !!! ’nuff said !! looks like lots of ruzzians not hating on americanzz around here!!! hilarious !!!!
Thief father and Thief son
Thief father and Thief son ruining America
The rich ALWAYS get special treatment, this is not new people.
This is not bombshell anything. Without cross examination, these allegations are just hearsay.
Hunter Biden looks like Steve-Os sibling.
Despicable
What is your opinion of President Biden’s infrastructure program helping Alabama, Boston , Michigan ECT ?
Corrupt Pigs
CAN WE PLEASE GET PAST THE BIDEN AND REPUBLICANS LIES!!!
Those whistle blowers would have talked sooner if they are real!!!
Takes time to fabricate a new story after the other one fails.
You are correct.
If it looks like a duck
Shoot it! 😄
It’s very very clear Hunter got special treatment. You’d have to be an imbecile to not see that.
I don’t care how corrupt the Bidens are, so what. You want Trump?😂
Yes. Dumas
Wow look real news
Good for you! Now you’re learning something!
NBC news is the fake news
The American people see this for what it is.sweet deal for hunter from creepy Joe’s doj.
It has got so bad for the biden’s even the propaganda mainstream media has been forced to start reporting on the corruption
Next time identify as Hunter Biden and you might also be given a chance to work out an “agreement” with the courts. Even the news channels which are mouth keepers for the Govt knows how absurd the court’s verdict is.
Only 14K views, how much is this news being suppressed?
How to speak Republican: Lesson 1. repeat – “Benghazi. laptop laptop Benghazi, Benghazi Benghazi laptop. Benghazi laptop.”
– and repeat forever. Say this whenever you are clueless.
@TruthForJustice How to talk to a demorat? Trumps racist, corrupt Ukraine first and say that Trump colluded with Russia. SMH, you understand how much of a hypocrite you democrats are right???
How about we all talk about the WhatsApp message? Do either of you care to discuss that? 🤡
@Chris Jenkins Democrats don’t care about anything unless MSNbc or CNn tell them its true. All they care about is screaming about Trump 24/7:/.
@Chris JenkinsThey would rather bury their heads in the sand like it never happened and just vote democrat 😂
How to speak Demorats : black, Trans, lesb, gays … immigrant give me your vote and Money. And no you cannot settle in my area just go where poor people are
NBC reported this? Wow
See? Now you’re learning who reports everything…than that FoxNewsJive does.
WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao. July 30th, 2017,
Biden to Henry Zhao, where Hunter Biden wrote: “I am sitting here with my father and
we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means
tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang,
or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every
person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following
my direction. Iam sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”
Communications like these made it clear we needed to search the guest house at
the Bidens’ Delaware residence where Hunter Biden stayed for a time.
Convenient that none of the “witty” libs have replied to this comment. 🤔
Hey NBDNC, how’s that egg on your face feeling?
We need a new democrat to keep this war going
Whistle blowers ? You mean some rumor spreaders😂😂 it’s always the same 💩. Trump still done.
They did give him special treatment those are facts duhhhhh MSM is trash
It’s so obvious that the Bidens sold the country out. What are we even pretending for?
It was about time Fake News come to REAL NEWS!!!!
Wow, I guess it’s Harris’ turn to be president cause the media are finally feeding Biden to the wolves
I think this means the Democrat Party is going to ask Biden to step down before November 2024.
White privilege

IRS removes ENTIRE team probing Hunter Biden’s tax returns, as whistleblower claims move is retaliation after he accused agency of working to cover-up first son’s financial ‘crimes’
NBC doing actual news? What gives?
When the president of a country is corrupt, that tells you a lot about the current state of that country
At this Point, I do NOT believe Sloppy Joe is going to be Re Elected. Its practically impossible at this point. So, People on the left should Begin rooting for another candidate now, that very well could be our Next President…..Gavin Gruesome, Joe Manchin, etc…I mean, im “conservative Leaning” and even I would vote for Manchin…or deeply consider it.
“I have two words for you. Made in America” – Joe Biden 😂
NBC…is that you?
Hunter Biden CCP shakedown – “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father”
